Blood tests are free ,not sure what doctor you go to 

I use a bulk billing GP and anyway even if you didn't use a bulk billing doctor the blood test is free 

Dr fee is still payable, 100 quid is not free gg😭

He said he uses a bulk billing GP so yes it is free. Where the heck are you paying 100 quid for a Dr in Australia (that's like A$200)?

Yes many doctors nowadays are not bulk billing free on Medicare 

I'm lucky I live in the City so there is still many around that bill Medicare 

 

I do find however the paid Doctors give you more time in the room

I used a doctor in the USA that billed the state, even though it was blue cross coverage. They view it as a type of welfare and are paid very little. I think they have to pay to be on the referral list just for the privledge of getting patients from the program. 

 

I got substandard care. Just a rushed exam that was a joke and billed for anything possible, including a bunch of blood work tests I did not need. Private insurance is much better. If I had something serious I think I was at risk and would likely die.
